Join us for an exciting program featuring Nova Scotian speakers. Our interactive sessions will be focused on topics that you have told us are important to your work and to the health of your communities.
We will entertain and inspire you with discussions on advocacy, determinants of health, including effective mental health, poverty, physical activity and healthy eating initiatives and strategies. We will share provincial primary health care updates and learn from each other’s achievements in effective CHB operations such as hosting community conversations, using social media, and volunteer management.
